They are much more comfortable now, and we have one more spring job crossed off our list. Front row, left to right: Dodge, Salt, Louie, Shaun, Rambo, and Jetta. Hiding in the back are Shebah, Genie, and Wetherby.
This morning I was getting ready to leave for work when the weather radio alarm sounded. It was a ten minute warning of an approaching severe thunderstorm that was dropping hail and gusting winds to 75 mph. We ran out to put the horses back into the barns and close everything up tight in spite of the temperature that was already in the 80s (F) and sticky humid. The storm did arrive in ten minutes, but with no wind to speak of and no hail. It did rain hard. We got an inch (2.5 cm) of rain in ten minutes. I left for work 20 minutes later and encountered four places where there was water to the depth of several inches running across the paved roads.
